Looking around I found this subwoofer page...
The driver looks familiar, but I can't place it.

Re: What driver are they using?
I don't follow their products closely but with that thick top plate, it could be an XBL^2 enabled driver. That would mean it may be sourced from Destijl Engineering. The CAC build house that also does XBL^2 uses stacked plates to build up their top plates.

Looks like an Adire to me.. *NM*
I'm just that guy. www.sru.edu Rock Solid.
"It has been remarked that if one selects his own components, builds his own enclosure, and is convinced he has made a wise choice of design, then his own loudspeaker sounds better to him than does anyone else's loudspeaker. In this case, the frequency response of the loudspeaker seems to play only a minor part in forming a person's opinion."

Of course, we all know from a recent discussion here that the Chinese can't make a decent amp. ;)

Several things come to mind. The magnet structure looks like a TC, Adire front-plates are not as steep an angle. The dustcap/cone look like the old 'mobile' Eclipse cones, w/o the logo. Frame is of the 12 spoke variety, which is not normally used in the TC's I've seen. Usually the four-spoke 'classic' frame is used in TC woofers. I would think it's an Eminence OEM, personally. Is it Underhung?

Well, actually, TC made the Eclipse woofers you refer to, and they also make a 12 spoke frame, so your observations seem to be summing it fairly well.

Re: What driver are they using?
My TC-built AV12 woofer has a 12-spoke cast basket.
I say it's TC Sounds.
